[Atrix 4G Android Development] philly fan:
Awesome as usual

All went great and smooth. What's next?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] oFUNGUSo:
wait a goldarn minute here..........does this mean the bootloader has been cracked?

forgive the noob question pls.

eitherway this is frwaking awesome!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
Nop. There is no changes to the kernel here. Just messing with the /system partition.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] twistedneck:
error.. "more than one device and emulator"

it says press any key to continue but i just exited the installer.bat.

any idea how i should continue?

newb question, does this mean we can use later version of android on this phone that would not normally have been released quickly enough or not at all? maybe 2.3 or even 3.0? i alredy have it rooted and like the non market apps.

Thanks for the great coding! making the atrix even cooler. wow, android is nice too.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sheek360:
worked perfectly, whats the advantage of running this ro with modded framework deodex etc vs stock?

thanks btw
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ceverson70:
so i installed the rom and now i can not get past the att rethink possible, it is stuck in an infinite loop, it does the dual core boot screen, then att rethink possible then it reboots, what should i do?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
It stays there quite a while. Just wait. It's just the first boot. Only worry if the led starts to flash red. If not, then just wait.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tekpc2k2:
Wait it out. Mine took 2 minutes to get past that AT&T screen.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ceverson70:
mine gets to the att boot screen then goes all the way back to the beginning i am pretty sure it is soft bricked
[Atrix 4G Android Development] psufan5:
read the post about recovering from a soft brick or wait for DG to write you.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
newbie question, but won't using a deodexed system cause that integrity checks fail when moto releases an update?

should we roll back to stock if so? does the reboot mod depend on the deodexed system or can it run by its own?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
Depends on it. You cannot do any modding if you use the stock packages. They have a strict checking between the packages that depend on each other, causing them to not work if one of them are modified.

Basically for now, if you want to use a deodexed rom, you want to backup your stock /system. Apply the deodexed ROM. When an update comes out, you backup your data with TiBu, go back to stock /system, apply the update and restore the TiBu data. And wait a few hours for a new deodexed updated rom :P.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
We are not sure that even happens as of yet. Some guy from the Droid X forum said that happens, no proof if that happens on the Atrix... yet.

Hey, I hope you followed the rules and didn't do a factory reset. I will PM you my gtalk info and get you fixed up.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] BravoMotorola:
It worked great. If you do everything exactly like OP says, your phone won't softbrick. The people that have the problems did something wrong. But even if you do something wrong, it is fixable. Low risk and worth it.

And to Designgears, great job and thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] azwildfire:
Thanks for the confidence BravoMotorola - sad you imply that simply extracting the files and running install.bat can be messed up - i mean, working in IT people always amaze me - but all we have to do is doubleclick install.bat - even the lowest of us have challenges messing that up.

Anyway - have you ever considered that there is something else we are doing to our phones that are causing issues or are simply not compatible with the rom? Like - oh i don't know - uninstalling too many apps via the apps menu? or perhaps we are one of the host of people that have issues with ADB once SuperOneClick is launched? in fact, there are some very reputable folks who are having the same issues - so don't always be so quick to assume the rest of us are just doing it wrong.

Designgears has done great work and his rom is fantastic - but these phones are just very touchy right now is all and some of us use our phone differently then others... it is not a stretch to think there could just be incompatabilities (have you tried the heptatic feeback mod? good lord that thing is sensitive)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] killster:
Posting

thank you

for your hard work, and to let you know,

another smooth successful Rom adjustment

. (To help those on the edge of "should I or shouldn't I?") Mine took 10 minutes start to finish, just to give ya an idea of, is this taking to long?

i have probably about 25 apps installed.

Thanks again DG,

Regards,

Killster
[Atrix 4G Android Development] TareX:
I have a question, because I’m buying either the Nexus S or the Atrix next week… So does that mean we can now have Custom ROMs? Does that mean when Google releases

Ice Cream Sandwich

, XDA will be able to modify it and hack it on the Atrix depsite of the signed bootloader?

I’m really only getting the Nexus S because of the Ice Cream update and GPU acceleration that will come along.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shawnbuck:
This has nothing to do with the locked bootloader, it is only changing files in /system.

The original limitations of the locked bootloader still remain.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
DG please help me. I have tried for hours to get adb working again on my atrix. I tried 4 different computers and 4 different usb cables, but my device is always is seen as offline. I also tried the early usb enumeration, but my phone just displays: powering on bp, cold booting linux, reading odm fuse: 1 and then reboots.

I was rooted last night and wanted to try your deodexed rom, but i never could get my device to be "online". I performed a hard reset and still have no luck with adb, it is always offline. Is my atrix ruined now?

I never had a soft brick and never got adb to work again after i rooted it a few days ago.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
By "Hard reset" do you mean a factory reset? If so, that is why. That is also why is written everywhere "NEVER DO A FACTORY RESET". What happens is when you do that, you disable the "USB Development mode". Pretty much disabling ADB. Thats why you can't see your phone on Early Enumeration.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
Is there any way to fix it? I did a factory reset, but I thought we weren't supposed to factory reset to fix a soft brick. Is my phone ruined for good? I had lost the ADB ability after I rooted, my device always showed the serial number and then "device offline", I thought that the root had something to do with losing the adb so I hard reset it. Then when DG posted his deodexed rom I tried to install it, but always got the device offline message. Then I hard reset the phone and I guess I lost the USB enumeration mode. I can't even get ADB to work on the phone at all anymore.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
I believe that we would need someone expert in fastboot to figure it out if its possible to write a dd dump of the /dev/mmcblk0p12 partition back to the phone memory. But thats an extremely risky thing to mess around if you dont know what you are doing.

I would help if I knew more about fastboot, but thats all I have to tell you.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] done12many2:
Hate to be the bearer of bad news.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
youre welcome, glad you like it!

I am tweaking things so I am not deleting dalvik-cache for /data apps, didn't even think about that, it's not a big deal, it just makes the initial boot take longer because it has more cache to rebuild.

He isn't soft bricked, he just can't get his computer(s) to see his phone. If you read the warning, is says not to do that

IF

you are soft bricked.

Sounds like some odd stuff going on over there. If you see the serial number it is at least communicating with the device in adb mode.

Are you able to use the other usb modes likes usb storage?

would be interesting to figure out. but I wonder if that is signed too and we are just kinda working around it by directly editing the files on the mounted partition.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
All the modes work and my phone is seen by my computer. Even in my devices it shows the Mot Compatible ADB Interface. I am not bricked and I never even got to the point of trying the deodexed rom. I have tried 4 computers and and as many cables and every usb port. In the Early USB Enumeration my phone displays: "Powering on BP, Cold-booting Linux, Reading ODM fuse: 1" and then the phone reboots 5 seconds later. I will try anything even something risky, because at this point I might have to exchange my phone.

"He isn't soft bricked, he just can't get his computer(s) to see his phone. If you read the warning, is says not to do that IF you are soft bricked."

Exactly, that is why I thought a hard reset wouldn't hurt. My computer sees the phone, but it sees it as "offline", whatever that means.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
from command, try "adb kill-server" without the quotes, then do "adb devices", see if that helps.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
No Luck. killed server, but it still shows my S/N then offline.

What about the Early USB Enumeration display: "Powering on BP, Cold-booting Linux, Reading ODM fuse: 1" and then the phone reboots 5 seconds later, is that right? Should it just show that then reboot?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
Try these drivers(64 and 32, install the one for your system):

64bit:

32bit:

http://www.multiupload.com/QNFILE4F07
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
I am using the 64 bit one you linked to. I uninstalled them, and rebooted my computer and then reinstalled them. Still offline. I tried them on my laptop, and another desktop, but no luck.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] TareX:
When did Motorola release a compatible kernel for the Droid X after Froyo was released on the Nexus One last year?

I just need to know when I should expect Ice Cream on the Atrix by XDA (won't wait for Motorola).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] azwildfire:
airbillion,

do you use adfree? it changes a file in /system folder and I am trying to find a comonality between all muh dead phones and yours. (I have had the same issues as you)

I also use autostarts (paid app) to manipulate startup items - i imagine that is changing files in the /system partition as well.

I also upgraded my busybox to 1.17 (just listing anything that needed root permissions that could have changed part of the system partition)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] EstebanCarlos:
What happens if you pull the battery?

I have had a couple of instances where I needed to pull the battery as the phone had become completely unresponsive, could not power off etc...

Thanks for the effort...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
Yes I used adfree, but I did a factory reset. However, even after the factory reset I still have root.

You have had the adb device offline issue with the atrix? How did you fix it. It is driving me crazy!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] azwildfire:
I think we are getting to the bottom of the issue (see my edited post)

a factory reset only clears the /data and the /cache partitions. It also clears applicatin cache.

it does NOT restore all the original files that the OS is not expected to be manipulated (like the host file)

so a factory reset will not undo adfree.

I got my 4th phone today - i have not installed ANYTHING on it because i am scared now :P i was not able to fix the issue, but just deduced it has to be an app I am using causing the issue.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cajuntigerbait:
super easy. Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ExApple:
So dumb question here every time i click on the INSTALL.bat windows says it could not find it, and for me to check the spelling and try again. Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
OK thanks. I wonder what app could be causing the ADB offline issue. I thought it might be an app, but after the hard reset I didn't think that was a possibility. I was surprised to have root after the hard reset also, but I'm glad I do because I was going to exchange my phone tomorrow for one with working ADB, but if it is a software/program issue I'm sure we will be able to fix the issue. However, I'm upset that I will not be able to try DG's deodexed rom until I get mu ADB offline issue fixed. Any ideas what app could be causing the issue? If I restore the original host file will that fix the problem, did you try that?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] realawill:
Again, this is not for a noob to do. I am experienced at flashing roms and the sort, but this phone is a different sort of beast. The factory reset does exactly what you just said it would do. It's not a factory restore. You also have the potential to loose adb emulation if you run a factory reset for some reason.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
ADB emulation from the recovery menu or ADB in general? Because I have ADB it is just offline all the time.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] realawill:
For some reason, and I could be wrong, but on the 2 Atrix's I have had, I have rooted both, and did a factory reset when I ran into problems. I lost complete adb on the phone. Just said device offline. On my 3rd rooted, but I will not do a factory reset again because of this, until we can figure out why it causes issues.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sheek360:
I hope this Rom gets updated with some optimizations soon. I can't wait to see what this Rom can evolve into!

Thanks for the hard work. She's running like a champ!!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
I guess I lost adb after my factory reset then. I don't want to return my atrix, but I will before my return period is up if we can't figure out the issue. I hope it is fixable and not permanent, I need adb access.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] realawill:
and you are using the USB that came with the phone and plugging it in the back USB port? Laptops and front ports don't seem to have as much power as a rear port.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] azwildfire:
I would suggest downloading the release dump, copy the /system files to an SD card or internal storage - then use a terminal emulator to copy them over top of your /system partition.

That would remove most of the added stuff.

also - make sure you did not install busybox into /system/bin - it should be in osh/bin
[Atrix 4G Android Development] airbillion:
Yes i am using the supplied cable and the back usb ports. I tried on 4 separate computers with the same results. Adb is always offline, but my atrix is visible. I think it may have something to do with root because I rooted my phone on launch day and then didn't try adb again until DG released his deodexed rom yesterday. I didnt try adb inbetween that time. I have had no other issues except this one.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Worked with no issues. Thanks a lot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sabesh:
DG, not sure about this: Are you saying that turning off the phone and then taking out the battery is a no-no too? (In case I want to swap out the battery with a spare). Thx.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
He means if you have problems installing the ROM. Once you are up and running, you can swap battery as much as you want.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] edgeicator:
He meant when flashing the rom.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
I mean when you are installing the rom don't pull the battery. once the installer is done, you can... even if you bricked...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sabesh:
Thx for clearing that up guys!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sergioakakobe:
if everything went well...can i do a factory reset? about to sell my phone and need all my info gone?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
sure can

10char
[Atrix 4G Android Development] CC Lemon:
Amazingly simple... many thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sergioakakobe:
thanx for the quick reply...

Appreciate it! :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] realawill:
Just to verify, this would be a Factory Data Reset in Settings>Privacy?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nerothezero:
I have factory reset my phone twice from the reset in the software and once externally and have had no issues. Adeo rom installed without a hitch. So it might not be a factory reset problem.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
Once it's installed and you boot up one with no problems. You can do as many factory resets as you want. I just recommend to go to Setting and Re-enable USB Debugging right away, just in case.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hassanjanjua2002:
Hi, I'm getting an error after running installer saying the files at /data/local/tmp/adeoinstaller.sh: not found. And i realized after installing root explorer that it can't get root access for some reason. the superuser popup never shows up. I dunno if these two are related by they could be. I have a atrix test model running 4.0.2340, baseband n_01.67.00R. Great work and thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hassanjanjua2002:
Ok got superuser working correctly and then used root explorer to see if see if files have been sent to phone and they are there at data/local/tmp/ where all the busybox, psneuter, adeoinstaller folder and adeoinstaller.sh file, etc are there.. Is there a way to manually launch from phone to complete?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Clienterror:
Is it bad that part of the reason I got the atrix was because DG rocked so much on the cappy? :-) thanks DG!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hassanjanjua2002:
.....I think i jumped the gun and maybe messed up the phone. I decided to run the the script thru gscript and everything was going great till it had to reboot and now its stuck on the red light then it goes on to the att logo and then back to blinking red light. Help plz
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ANDY12001:
Is this rom remove all rubbish app?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] daveop:
Honestly it was the same reason for me. Good developers who take a shot even knowing about the bootloader shows some dedication and I appreciate that about dg
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Not at all. You need to do this on your own and at the moment nothing can be unistalled from Motorola's Framework. If you do, you wont be able to go back to stock. :) At least not until we have backup capabilities.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] RootPhisher:
Thanks DG, loaded this ROM yesterday and no issues.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cjacks519:
Installed and running flawlessly. Great work!

Sent from my AT&T Atrix 4G
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xenorabbit:
DG, after looking through the scripts you may want to put another disclaimer in the op. If the install script is run for a second time the backup of the original /system directories will get overwritten with a backup of the adeo /system directories. Should not be a huge deal since the retail dump can be used to restore from.

Still would be a good idea for anyone that installed adeo to copy the backup file to a safe and secure place on their pc after install.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] psufan5:
Any word on the reverting back to stock script? I also installed this without a hitch :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] eunique:
Not at all. I am in the same boat..that is really the main reason I got the Atrix! Now, I'm kinda bummed..DG tweeted his next phone is Galaxy S 2. :(
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Galaxy s 2 prob wont be out till the summer if att gets it
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andrew53517:
Tmobile only I heard for now. Hopefully not because I want DG all to ourselves .... mwahahahahah

Atrix4G Rooted!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bedwa:
The European version has the 850 umts band as it's quad band umts. I've been thinking about selling off devices for it myself.....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] adamzeit:
Question after Loading ROM

Worked perfectly...and now I have the "reboot" option when I hit the Power Button (and hopefully less lag in the ROM). Question though - I didn't wipe before I did this - and all my data appears to be still here and fully configured. With a new ROM, wouldn't this all get wiped and go away? Or does it save it all?

Now that I have this ROM on here, should I "wipe and start fresh" for full effect?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ceverson70:
So got it figured out, had it working but crashed it because I manually updated busybox, designgears was wicked helpful, stupid mistake, but got phone replaced
[Atrix 4G Android Development] killster:
I installed without a hitch as well, but sit in a scared boat, and would like to be able to revert.

I copied the backup file to my pc for safe keeping,

DG, do you have the revert script up and functioning?

I ask only to ensure i can put the phone back to a state, i can then do a factory restore and sell the device if need be.

Better safe than sorry.

Thanks in advance,

killster
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
that was my thinking, then if AT&T gets it it will be easy for me to migrate.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] AllTheWay:
No love for the Samsung Infuse? I know the GS2 has a dual core but it's hard to beat that 4.5" inch screen with the 1.3mp front camera. I am thinking about selling my Atrix and Inspire just for that phone when it comes out.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andrew53517:
Greattttt. So what developers will do we still have left? Lol

Atrix4G Rooted!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] psufan5:
The GS2 would work on AT&T? Might be worth returning this phone if the boot loader on that is unlocked...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] designgears:
I will probably pick up a few more phones this year.

I an not selling the atrix...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andrew53517:
So you'd still work on it, along with your GS2?! :D

Atrix4G Rooted!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Clienterror:
You better not! You're going to make me broke phone stalking you :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sheek360:
out of curiousity. what are your future plans with this Rom?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] unity311mu:
Thanks a lot for your efforts on the Atrix so far DG, more has happened quickly than I thought it would! Quick question though...will calls or texts interrupt the script, i.e. would it be prudent for me to remove my sim? Thanks, will be installing this after work tonight!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] psufan5:
Does anyone know how to get this phone back to stock? I need to return it tonight and I dont want it looking all hacked... I was thinking of just unrooting, erasing the internal SD, then resetting to factory... Sure it will brick the phone, but hey its under warranty right? Or will they still be able to tell I rooted it?

Either way, anyone know how to do this? Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shawnbuck:
You can factory reset the phone now, since the mod was installed successfully.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Clienterror:
I think if you just unroot it you'd be fine, most of them have no idea how to tell anyways. And this rom isn't themed so it isn't like they can unlock it and tell. So ya just ditch superuser and you're golden, and I'm pretty sure they'd have to know where to look in rootexplorer or something to tell it was deodexed and considering most of them don't even know what root is your good in that dept. ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jzaslice:
Success!!

Thanks so much DG for making this ultra accessible for everyone and easy for ANYONE to do!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hassanjanjua2002:
lol anyone excluding me.
